South Korea's Supreme Court upholds prison sentence for Yoon in first martial law case

South Korea's Supreme Court upheld a seven-year prison sentence for former President Yoon Suk Yeol in a martial law case, finding him guilty of infringing on Cabinet members’ rights, falsifying documents, and illegally deploying security forces. Martial law was repealed hours after lawmakers broke a military blockade, and Yoon remains in detention while appealing other convictions, including a life sentence for rebellion and a 30-year term linked to drone flights aimed at heightening tensions with North Korea.
